Application of Rosemary and Eucalyptus Essential Oils and Their Main Component on the Preservation of Apple and Pear Fruits

Horticulturae, 2021
Nowadays, increase fruit losses are being reported due to the development of fungal postharvest diseases. In an attempt to reduce the use of synthetic fungicides, a turn towards natural products such as essential oils (EOs) and natural compounds has been

Adaptive Responses of Tropical Crops: A Multi‐Scale Omics Integrated Perspective

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Tropical crops integrate genomic, morphological, physiological, and ecological adaptations to thrive under extreme and variable environments. This review highlights how natural selection, domestication, and breeding shape stress resilience, resource‐use strategies, and productivity in sugarcane, banana, cassava, rubber and oil palm, offering new routes

Assessing the representativeness of trials of Sodium-glucose Cotransporter-2 inhibitors in type 2 diabetes: a comparison of individual-level trial data and people newly prescribed treatment in a Welsh routine care database

BMC Medicine
Background Randomised controlled trials are often criticised for excluding people with multiple long-term conditions. This study used individual participant data for 25 trials of sodium glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) to compare baseline ...

Inequalities in geographical distribution of heritage in Scotland, investigating spatial exposure to heritage sites through area-based and individual-based (GPS) measurement

Wellbeing, Space and Society
Growing evidence suggests that visiting heritage, such as historic buildings, or landscapes, may enhance mental health. However, adults and children from deprived areas are less likely to visit heritage, perhaps partly due to unequal geographical ...

First Report of Pear Decline Phytoplasmas on Pear in Serbia

Plant Disease, 2005
During August of 2004, pear (Pyrus communis L.) plants with typical symptoms of pear decline (PD) were observed in orchards in central Serbia. The affected plants showed premature reddening and upward rolling of leaves that often showed down-turned petioles. In some cases, premature defoliation was observed.

The Landscape of Long Non‐Coding RNAs Provides Insights Into the Domestication and Improvement of Pear Fruit

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that long non‐coding RNAs represent important regulatory components underlying pear domestication and improvement. Integrative multi‐omics analyses identify selected lncRNAs associated with fruit traits, while functional validation uncovers a lignin‐related lncRNA, lncRNA‐pys, that promotes lignin accumulation.

Advancing Fruit Bioimpedance Monitoring With Sustainable, Soft, And Bio‐Based Electrodes Beyond ECG

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Electrical impedance spectroscopy enables non‐destructive fruit quality monitoring, but conventional ECG and needle electrodes compromise signal stability, fruit physiology, and sustainability. This perspective highlights the transition toward soft, biocompatible, and biodegradable electrode interfaces based on natural substrates, bio‐derived ...
